Why don't the Police 'pose' as pedestrians to catch cyclists riding

Because people riding bicycles inconsiderately on pavements are
mostly just an annoyance that other people like to exaggerate -
they rarely kill anyone, much more often a case of "nearly hit
someone". Where it is an acknowledged problem, in places like
Cambridge, they have occasional crack-downs on pavement cycling and
bikes with no lights, but that's all it merits really.

My long dead mother used to walk to the shop. She was very fail and
could not see very well.
If some footpath riding **** of a cyclist had hit her, the cyclist
would have killed her and then smartly ****ed off, as scum cyclists
tend to do.

In other words, your mother never encountered one of these 'scum
cyclists' just, in fact, as you never have... Sixty odd years and
counting, still waiting for a 'thug cyclist' to challenge you, you and
your 5" chisel in your back pocket at the ready.

Do they do Mindfulness courses round your way? They can teach you to
deal with life's actual events instead of obsessing over perceived
possibilities. You know, so that you can live in the true 'now' -
without regretting the past or fearing the future.

I insure my house against the possibility of it burning down etc.
I guess that in your dim eyes I'm being over cautious.
Next time think before you type your ********.
